Sustainable forestry in a changing climate Overarching aim: To make BECC an important actor in Sweden for research about sustainable forestry connected to climate change Number of participants: many Meetings in connection to forest cluster meetings Outputs where the AG contributed: overview of BECC forest research, seminars, policy briefs, working paper (on scenarios), input to policy documents, mapping of C-sink in Nordic countries

Aims of the action group (all related to stakeholder interactions) To create a common platform for forest related research in BECC and related programs To identify areas where we need to improve To increase stakeholder interactions To facilitate communication between social and natural scientists in the forestry field To do synthesis work related to Sustainable forestry

Action groups and collaboration? Many participants in the AG meetings (same as on the forest cluster meetings). Everyone working with forests were invited (many!) The actual work was performed in smaller groups, different for different tasks. Cooperation with other programs e.g. in worshop organisation (Mistra-SWECIA, CLEO)

Conclusions BECC is and actor in the sustainable forestry field We are better prepared for applications, contributions to “remisser”, synthesis reports, etc than before BECC. Stakeholder interactions is a suitable task for an AG Ideas for the future: articles to Skogseko/Skogen, excursions, 2-days conference. Natural/social science cooperation needs more action E.g. a common post doc/PhD. Meetings are not enough. One action per AG is more effective?! This AG was a bit to broad.
